  • Measuring Our Progress - 2017/18-2020/21 Delivery Program
    THE INTEGRATED PLANNING AND REPORTING FRAMEWORK The Local Government Integrated Planning and Reporting (IPR) Framework aims to ensure a more sustainable Local Government sector. All NSW Councils are required to develop a Community Strategic Plan (10 years) along with a Delivery Program (4 years) and Operational Plan (1 year). These documents are informed by a Resourcing Strategy (10 years) that is made up of a Long Term Financial Plan (Money), Asset Management Strategy (Assets) and Workforce Management Plan (People). Figure 1: IPR Framework In order to achieve the integration envisaged by the IPR framework, there is an alignment between the Fairfield City Plan (Community Strategic Plan), Resourcing Strategy, Delivery Program and the Operational Plan. This alignment is formed through the five Themes identified by the community in the Fairfield City Plan: . Theme 1: Community Wellbeing . Theme 2: Places and Infrastructure . Theme 3: Environmental Sustainability . Theme 4: Local Economy and Employment . Theme 5: Good Governance and Leadership The Delivery Program details the projects, programs and services Council will undertake during its term-of- office to help achieve the community outcomes identified in the Fairfield City Plan. The Operational Plan is a sub plan of the Delivery Program, which outlines the projects, major programs and services that will be undertaken during the financial year. It also includes the budget details for the year. This report will be publicly available on Council’s website. QUARTERLY REPORT October to December

Even though we did not get the result we wanted against Olympic we played some good football and the boys showed good heart and effort.
